RD8000 Straight Leads

My Heavy Duty RD 4000/7000/8000/8100 Lead Set (Item # RD8pin)

These lead sets fit the Radio Detection RD4000, RD7000, RD7100, RD8000 &amp the RD8100 and use the 8 pin plug.

The Heavy Duty * RD lead set I sell is is 10 ft per lead or a useable distance of about 19 ft when spread apart, (6" is kept together near the connector end for an additional strain relief) and are ready to plug in and use.

I use the OEM RD equipment plug & the OEM insulated Crocodile clips, the lead wire is High Quality, Heavy Duty, 16 awg kinkless, vinyl coated, stranded 65/34 tinned copper wire, resistant to chemical corrosion and fungus. Tinned, copper lead wire is important as when the insulation gets cut the leads wires get moisture and untinned copper stranded wire can get brittle and break.

These are usually in stock

Priced at $45.00 plus shipping.

* Please Note: the factory leads supplied from Radio Dectection and others are 18 awg or 20 awg with thick insulation but the wire is a smaller diameter than the Heavy Duty16 awg leads I manufacture for my straight lead sets.

These lead sets fit the Radio Detection RD4000, RD7000, RD7100, RD8000 &amp the RD8100 and use the 8 pin plug.

The leads are about 14" when retracted and about 5 ft+ when extended giving an overall spread of about 10 - 12 ft. I have changed to a thicker insulated cable which does not fit into the RD connector so there is a splice at the connector end to a wire gauge that fits into the connector Like all "coily cord" type leads, they should not be overextended too much from their rated length.

About

As a locate technician since 2012, I have had to deal with the inevitable lead or clamp failure.

Unfortunately it's a matter of "when" not "if" they will fail in our line of work.

I wasn't happy with the construction and durability of the factory leads so I designed my own set using a higher quality and larger gauge wire and different assemby tecniques.

After making some for associates, I started Rdleads.com in 2013 and have expanded from just leads for the Radio Detection RD 8000 to leads for older Radio Detection products, certain Metrotech products, certain Vivax products and for the Subsite 910/950.

Repairs

Radio Detection Leads

When your leads arrive for repair I inspect them to determine what parts are missing or defective then arrive at a cost and will contact you with a cost estimate of all parts and labor and a time estimate prior to doing any repairs.

Please keep in mind that the wires will be cut back at each each end as these are the failure points and your repaired leads will be slightly shorter.

If you decide not to do the repairs, upon request, your leads will be returned to you at your expense, (a PayPal invoice for the shipping cost will be emailed and when it is paid your items are returned.)

The cost estimate is free and there will be no charge for the labor to arrive at an estimate, whether I do the repairs or not.

Do NOT under any circumstances send any equipment to me for repair without me approving in advance as I accept no responsibility for items I have not authorized to be sent to me.

Radio Detection Clamps

When your clamp arrives for repair I inspect it to determine what parts are missing or defective then arrive at a cost and will contact you with a cost estimate of all parts and labor and a time estimate prior to doing any repairs.

Please keep in mind that the cable will be cut back at each each end as these are the failure points and your repaired clamp cable length will be slightly shorter. If it is determined that the wires inside the cable are badly oxidized and have to be cut back too much a cost for replacemnt cable is provided. If the ends of the clamp to stay closed but do not make contact evenly, a PVC clamp "guide" can be fabricateed and attached to one side.
